Cozumel, Quintana Roo — Mayor José Luis Chacón toured the rehabilitation work on Francisco Cordero street in the Félix González Segunda Etapa neighborhood, inspecting progress on a project officials say will transform the area’s urban infrastructure.
Speaking to residents, Chacón said the effort fulfills a commitment to improve roads in a neighborhood that had gone more than 20 years without an intervention of this scale.
He said two streets are being rehabilitated in the current phase, with three more to follow, in a neighborhood where 19 roads have been paved in total.
The mayor noted that Francisco Cordero had long needed proper maintenance, since standing water during the rainy season damaged nearby homes and affected vehicles traveling through the area.
The project involves a full rehabilitation of the road surface using sascab, a locally sourced construction material, with 30 centimeters of leveling to raise the height of the street. Crews will then apply a seal coat to improve durability and prevent rainwater from pooling.
During the inspection, residents of Francisco Cordero approached the mayor to acknowledge the infrastructure work underway in their neighborhood, expressing gratitude for the attention and for the projects carried out during his administration.
